In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“Our pharmacists work hard each day to ensure we are delivered the treatment and care we need. They deserve to have their needs met, and that must include addressing any mental health challenges they may experience. I'm proud to be joined by Congresswoman Kiggans to designate September 20th National Pharmacy Workforce Suicide Awareness Day. I'll keep pushing to ensure our healthcare workforce receives the same support, dedication, and compassion that they provide to their patients.”
